  • Publication number: 20210244685
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the use of cannabidiol (CBD) for the treatment of atonic seizures. In particular the CBD appears particularly effective in reducing atonic seizures in patients suffering with etiologies that include: Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome; Tuberous Sclerosis Complex; Dravet Syndrome; Doose Syndrome; Aicardi syndrome; CDKL5 and Dup15q in comparison to other seizure types. The disclosure further relates to the use of CBD in combination with one or more anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs).

  • Patent number: 11065209
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the use of cannabidiol (CBD) for the treatment of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC). In particular the TSC is treatment resistant and is characterised by generalised seizures or focal seizures with impairment. The disclosure further relates to the use of CBD in combination with one or more anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs).

  • Publication number: 20210205262
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) in the treatment of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and ASD-associated disorders, such as Fragile X syndrome (FXS); Rett syndrome (RS); or Angelman syndrome (AS). CBDA has been shown to be particularly effective in improving cognitive dysfunction in rodent models of ASD, FXS, RS and AS. The CBDA is preferably substantially pure. It may take the form of a highly purified extract of cannabis such that the CBDA is present at greater than 95% of the total extract (w/w) and the other components of the extract are characterised. Alternatively, the CBDA is synthetically produced.

  • Patent number: 11000486
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a combination of two different cannabinoids in the treatment of leukaemia. The combination of CBD with THC appears to be particularly effective in reducing cell number in this disease. Preferably the cannabinoids are used in the form of an extract of Cannabis such that many of the naturally occurring compounds are co-extracted with the THC or CBD. Alternatively, the cannabinoids are present in the form of a highly purified extract of Cannabis, wherein the CBD or THC are present at greater than 98% of the total extract (w/w) and the other components of the extract are characterised. Alternatively, the CBD and THC may be synthetically produced. A specific ratio of CBD and THC such as 10:1 to 1:10 (CBD:THC) or more preferably between 2:1 to 1:2 (CBD:THC) may be used.
